Parents going to orientation?

We didn’t attend orientation with D last year, and didn’t miss a thing. Between the website, the mailings and the invaluable people here at CC, we found out everything we needed to know and were happy to save the money. My recollection is that to keep things fair, class slots are held open for later attendees, so your daughter should just choose the most convenient session. (I also felt that Parents Weekend could have easily been skipped–next year I’ll be visiting on my own schedule, when nearby hotel rooms are easier and cheaper to come by. The weekend’s on-campus activities were okay, but not compelling.)
